The latest episode of WWE RAW was not kind to Rhea Ripley at all. All Mami wanted to do was reaffirm to Bayley that she was unbeatable, but things turned rough soon after that.
Nia Jax attacked Ripley from behind on the ramp before laying her out with multiple leg drops and the Annihilator. This was a clear signal of intent from The Irresistible Force, who looks set to challenge for the Women's World Championship at the Elimination Chamber 2024 Premium Live Event.
Rhea Ripley's on-screen partner, Dominik Mysterio, was unhappy with how things transpired. Dirty Dom reacted to Jax's assault on WWE RAW by tweeting an angry emoji. Mami replied to Dominik, taking a shot at him and the rest of The Judgment Day, with none of them coming out to help or check on her.
The Women's World Champion posted a clip from Dominik's backstage meltdown after losing the NXT North American Championship last month, where he questioned where The Judgment Day was. This was a reminder that Rhea Ripley feels the same way Dirty Dom felt after NXT Deadline.
New Champs in WWE! More RIGHT HERE
Check out Rhea Ripley's reply below:
This might be part of a larger upcoming rift between Ripley and the male members of The Judgment Day. They clearly are not on the same page anymore, so something big might happen soon on WWE RAW.
WWE Superstar Rhea Ripley might turn babyface soon
While this was not an official turn, Rhea Ripley is clearly the "babyface" in her feud with Nia Jax. The Irresistible Force's attack on WWE RAW made it obvious, along with the fact that the Elimination Chamber 2024 Premium Live Event is scheduled to be in Mami's home country of Australia. Ripley's growth in popularity may accelerate the transition, though.
Rhea Ripley will likely face Becky Lynch at WrestleMania 40, which means she may stay heel until at least The Show of Shows.
It will be interesting to see how things pan out for the Women's World Champion on WWE RAW over the next couple of months. However, one thing is sure: Ripley's time in The Judgment Day is almost over.
